9/4
Has produced all her best form in the summer months and over shorter trips than she has been racing over lately. This will be her easiest task in a while and the yard's horses have been running well.

13/2
Hasn't won since taking a 2m Kempton Novices' Hurdle for Nicky Henderson in March 2014. Has recently been plying his trade in sellers without success and belatedly embarks on a chasing career.

3/1
Has won a couple of minor point-to-points but his form under rules reveals a lack of pace. Drop in trip raises serious doubts but on the other hand this will take little winning.

6/5
Chasing debutant fresh from a win at Ludlow where he made all. Has every chance at the weights on a track that should suit his style of racing, providing he takes to these obstacles.

Forecasts

Teaser (6/5), Grageelagh Girl (9/4), Starlight Court (3/1), Oscar Hoof (13/2)

Verdict

Teaser makes his chasing bow having scored over hurdles in May. His front running style will serve him well around here, but he has looked a bit of a thinker in the past and it remains to be seen how he adapts. GRAGEELAGH GIRL has seen her mark tumble and recent performances have been discouraging. However, this is her time of year and she gets a chance to race over a more suitable distance than has been the case lately. Starlight Court looks one paced but looks better prepared to exploit any weaknesses in his two main rivals given that Oscar Hoof has not won in more than five years.
